Another TV post!

I personally has seen it on two occasions. One was a TV's at a local firing range that had several monitors that displayed information. Whether called burn-in or image retention the fact of the matter is the image was there. When the content would flash to the next content you could clearly see the old image on the top and bottom of the screen. It was bad enought that it would distort the content image playing at the time as it went through the video.
The other was a gamers TV that played a TON of shooting games. When his TV was off you, once again you clearly could see the image was forever there and would not go away.
When I had my Panasonic Plasma TV (still have one not in use) I was told to use the full screen or enlarge the content playing to avoid the over use of the middle of the TV panel to avoid burn-in, which I did UNLESS I was watching a movie. -
Dang.
New one on me, learned something today.
How’s your Plasma, any burn?
Do you use pixel shifting while you were watching?
I try to not use the pixel shift, being a purist, but I always use screen wiping on a regular basis.
Been able to keep my screen burn to a very slight burn, have to point it out to those that aren’t up to know what they’re looking for.
Ours is on most all the day since new, have no idea of the viewing hours. Trying to get into that menu is a royal pain on the Panny Palasma’s.
I always use mine on THX Cinema for all content.
Never had the guts to try THX Cinema Bright or the Vivid setting. The Vivid setting just never looked right to me. -
I had my plasma professionally calibrated after 300hrs of use. Mine has zero issues, I used the wiping feature only once to see what it did. The company I used for the calibration warned me to avoid the wiping feature unless it was absolutely necessary as it could shorten the life of the panel.
I did use pixel shift. -
Interesting.
The VT’s & ZT’s were built to last as I’ve had zero issues other than the slight burn.
Sure wish these weren’t discontinued.
Beautiful picture along with being one of the best for viewing sports, no motion blur whatsoever.
Apologies for hijacking the thread with our witty banter.
